Pac-12 men’s tennis runs through Tucson.
No. 14 Arizona defeated No. 24 Washington 4-1 Sunday afternoon to earn its first Pac-12 championship in program history as the Wildcats went perfect in conference play.
The conference regular season title is a milestone achievement for coach Clancy Shields, who inherited one of the Pac-12’s bottom programs when he took the job in May 2016.
By beating Washington, Arizona (20-5, 7-0) clinched the No. 1 seed for the Pac-12 Championship. The Wildcats will face No. 8 seed Cal Wednesday in Ojai, Calif.
The UA jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead over the Huskies by taking the doubles point.
